In an episode that absolutely demolishes the previous podcast record for “most on-air crying,” Vanessa challenges Elijah to find a pairing for the mockumentary masterpiece of dread that is Lake Mungo. After determining that it’s worse to cry in an M&M store than a White Castle, Elijah counters with what is possibly the greatest 6th film in a franchise of all time, Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning. But what does a movie about bioengineered beefcakes have in common with a slow-burn story of a haunting? Why can’t Elijah say “Lake Mungo” in a normal voice? And does Vanessa remember your Twitter handle? Find out, in this week’s double-feature discussion.  

The official snack pairing for Lake Mungo and Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning is a dirty martini on an empty stomach.
